Seasonal Yard Cleanup

Prepare your landscape for the changing seasons with our comprehensive cleanup services, from spring prep to fall leaf removal, ensuring your property looks its best year-round.

What to Expect

New Jersey's distinct seasons each bring their own set of challenges and opportunities for your landscape. Our seasonal cleanup services are designed to prepare your property for the season ahead and clean up the mess from the one before. A thorough cleanup is one of the most important things you can do to ensure your landscape remains healthy and beautiful.

Our Step-by-Step Process
1
Rake and Remove Leaves

Don't let a thick layer of leaves sit on your lawn all winter. It can smother the grass and create a breeding ground for pests and diseases. Rake them up, or better yet, mulch them with your mower to add nutrients back into the soil.

2
Cut Back Perennials

After the first hard frost, cut back your herbaceous perennials to about 3-4 inches from the ground. This tidies up the garden and helps prevent pests and diseases from overwintering in the dead foliage.

Pro Tips for Success

Clean Your Gutters

Fall is the perfect time to clear your gutters of leaves and debris. Clogged gutters can lead to water damage, ice dams in the winter, and pest infestations. Don't overlook this crucial task.

Protect Vulnerable Plants

For sensitive shrubs like roses or boxwoods, consider wrapping them in burlap or building a protective A-frame structure to shield them from heavy snow and harsh winter winds.
